The Missing Persons Unit (MPU) faces a ticking clock in this Tuesday’s “Alert.” The episode, titled “Lillian,” centers on the kidnapping of a successful playwright just as her beloved theater prepares for its grand reopening after decades of closure.
The theater, however, carries a heavy history. Decades prior, a devastating fire claimed the lives of 87 people. A video message sent to the playwright and her partner suggests that this tragedy is connected to the present danger. The kidnapper’s threat: If the theater reopens, the playwright will be burned alive.
As the MPU races against time, Jason also has a personal mission, enlisting Wayne’s help to uncover the identity of Sidney’s baby’s father. With guest stars Fivel Stewart as Sidney and Holly Cinnamon as Celia Fischer joining the main cast, “Lillian” takes the MPU into familiar territory: high stakes, personal drama, and a relentless pursuit of answers.
“Alert: Missing Persons Unit” airs Tuesday, April 29 at 9:00 PM ET/PT on FOX.
